    Bible alone?

    Sooooo - Moses had the God-given Authority over God's people. When he failed - did GOD fail? David had God-given Authority over God's people Israel. When David sinned - did GOD sin? YOUR inability to differentiate the God-given ruling Authority from the personal weaknesses and sin of those...

    Bible alone?

    Individuals within the Church may be evil - but that doesn't condemns the Church itself. If it DID - then Jesus was to be condemned for choosing Judas, a devil (John 6:70-71). And not ONCE has the Church TAUGHT that the men responsible for the sex scandal were innocent. Individuals are guilty...

    Perpetual virginity of Mary!

    "Brother" as in "Adelphos". As I have repeatedly explained - Adelphos can be used for brother, half-brother, cousin, nephew, uncle, neighbor, fellow-countryman, fellow-believer, etc. Here's a little guide for you. Maybe this will help with your confusion . . . There are 244 instances are...

    Where does the Bible say?

    WOW - you are TOTALLY confused and it's easy to see why. YOUR confusion lies in ONE tiny blunder: The idea that the "Adelphoi" of Jesus were the children of Mary. They were NOT - and NOWHERE does the Bible make this claim. "Adelphos" can be used for brother, hal-brother, cousin, nephew...

    Bible alone?

    As I stated before - your grasp of "Authority" is childish and ignorant. Let's look at some Biblical examples of transferred Authority, shall we?? Gen. 41:40-41 YOU shall be over my house, and all my people shall order themselves as YOU command; only with regard to the throne will I be greater...

    Perpetual virginity of Mary!

    And where have I "added on"?? I showed you the complete ABSENCE of textual evidence of Mary having other children - and YOU have failed to produce any such evidence. WHERE does the Bible say that MARY had other children? for that matter - can you even produce an EXTRABIBLICAL account of Mary...

    Where does the Bible say?

    And there you go again adding to Scripture what is NOT there. YOU added "James and Joses after "Mary, mother of Jesus". Here are the UNEDITED verses of Scripture about the account of the Crucifixion: Matt. 27:55-56 says: "Many women were there, watching from a distance. They had followed...

    Where does the Bible say?

    Mary, the "Mother of James the Less and of Joses" is Mary, wife of Clopa/Alphaeus - NOT Mary, mother of Jesus and wife of Joseph. In, we see that Alphaeus is the father of James the Less: Luke 6:15 ". . . and Matthew, and Thomas, and James the son of Alphaeus, and Simon who was called the...

    Perpetual virginity of Mary!

    Another pathetic opinion-laden attempt to disprove Scriptural truth. YOU lose - and God WINS again. "It is permissible, on Greek grammatical and linguistic grounds, to paraphrase kecharitomene as completely, perfectly, enduringly endowed with grace." (Blass and DeBrunner, Greek Grammar of the...

    Where does the Bible say?

    Another asinine argument presented by a guy who is completely devoid of any Scriptural knowledge. Your entire argument collapses (many times) - but especially where you quote Matt. 27:56, above in LARGE BOLD letters. Here is the verse: Matt. 27:56 among whom was Mary Magdalene, and Mary the...

    Perpetual virginity of Mary!

    And this pathetic reply id typical of a person who cannot refute Mary's title of "Kecharitomene". This is nothing but opinion, whereas I presented Biblical and linguistic FACT. Come back where you're prepared to intelligently debate this issue - and leave your uneducated opinions at the door . . .

    Perpetual virginity of Mary!

    You told nothing BUT lies and denials and rejections of the truth., I gave you Biblical argument after Biblical argument - and all YOU did was call them "Lies". Don't agree with them? Fine - then give me an alternate Biblical argument. Calling the Word of God a "Lie" is a lie in itself - not...

    Perpetual virginity of Mary!

    FULLY sanctified while still alive. The Bible says that YOU are being worked on - daily sanctified (1 Cor. 1:8, 2 Cor. 2:15, 7:1, Phil. 2:12, Heb 12:14). God completed this in Mary by the time the Angel got there. BIG difference.

    Perpetual virginity of Mary!

    HOW?? By God. First of all - you need to realize that the NT WASN'T written in English. It was written in GREEK. In Luke 1:28, the Angel's greeting reveals this. The Greek word is Kecharitomene that Luke used in his Gospel (v.1:28), which is the perfect passive participle, indicates a...

    Where does the Bible say?

    Uh huh - and James the Greater is the brother of John, son of Zebedee and Salome. James the Less is the brother of Joses and the son of Alphaeus/Clopas and the other Mary standing near the cross. NOT sure where you're getting James the Greater being the brother of Joses - and James the Less...

    Perpetual virginity of Mary!

    Having your lies repeatedly exposed in public shouldn't make you aspire to be a ANTI-Catholic . . .

    Bible alone?

    This is a ridiculous argument - and it shows that you don't know a THING about Scripture OR history. The Apostles Baptized by the Authority of Christ. HE gave THEM the Authority to do that (Matt. 28:19). When a judge sentences a person to prison or marries a couple - he does so by the Authority...

    Where does the Bible say?

    WRONG. You have it backwards. James the Less is the brother of Joses (Joseph) snd the son of Mary and Clopas (Alphaeus). This is the "brother" of the Lord. The other James who was an Apostle was the brother of John and the son of Zebedee.

    Bible alone?

    WRONG. First of all - the Authority that Jesus gave the Apostles was that whatever they declared was to be guided by the HOLY SPIRIT. It's not them making the judgements and decisions on their own - but the Holy spirit working THROUGH them. Jesus was VERY clear that WHATEVER they bound or...

    Perpetual virginity of Mary!

    You want me to b nice to you? You get wat you give . That's to ALL of the Anti Catholics here who think they've been treated "unfairly" by me . . .
